Creative Director All are popular in our writing today. Why do we find them so fascinating, since it seems that we Romaine Reeves CFO are afraid of them? I know that Stephenie Meyer made vampires more romantic than scary. Her Starr Gardinier Reina Executive Editor depiction of vampires was more about fueling teenage fantasy than about portraying them in Jim Thomsen accordance with fictional history. But all of them Copy Editor feed off the emotions of the living, and even Contributors though many people feel they don’t exist, and that would be why we do find them Donald Allen Kirch fascinating.

At any given time you find a ghost story or ghost hunt Kiki Howell on TV. Demons are all over the horror genre and now becoming a lot more mainstream.

Christopher Nadeau Kathleen Heady So, I have to ask, is the paranormal the new police book? Does a thriller or suspense Stephen Brayton book have to have some sort of paranormal activity, along with some type of romance Brian Blocker Andrew MacRae to be popular? My answer might surprise you, but I don’t think so. I think that all Val Conrad books and genres go through fads. Remember “The Da Vinci Code” by Dan Brown? Laura Alden Melissa Dalton Historical thrillers were all the rage—just ask Clive Cussler and Steve Berry, who saw Elliott Capon their popularity skyrocket because that genre was all over the place. Hollywood does J.M. LeDuc Holly Price the same thing by putting out the same type of movies; heck, Disney and Dreamworks Kari Wainwright for a couple of years would basically put out the same movie, just change the voices and David Ingram Bill Craig the title. Jodi Hanson As an author, you shouldn’t get caught up in the fads of readers, because they end as Amy Lignor Susan May fast as they came in. If you are writing a book with vampires, zombies, or demons, stop. J.S. McCormick You are too late to probably make a mark in these saturated markets. Ghosts, however, Kestrel T.

BarrIngton Crucifying Angel Book One: Future Imperfect “Don’T make me get A warrant,” he told Ernesto Calderon as they both stood in the surveillance bay. Alfonso was gone for the day and Calderon drew the swing shift. “I really don’t think you want Garcia dragged away from his wife at this late hour. All you have to do is make me a copy of the footage I looked at the other day.” Ernesto looked askance at Gavin, as if the detective wore a set of horns. He moved along the inside of the monitor station backing away and running a hand along the underside of the console. “I advise against that.” Gavin reached into his holster. “I can put you down before your fingers touch the button. Make me the copy.” “What format?” Ernesto played for time. “All of them. And please put a rush on it.” He smiled and pointed his tricked out Glock at the man. “I have a deadline to meet. One I cannot miss.” Ernesto did as he was told and Gavin knew Calderon would hit the panic button as soon as Gavin walked out the door. He prevented that by walking around and shooting the wiring to shreds. “Thank you, Ernesto,” Gavin told him as he took the chip, stick, and a cylinder from him. “You have my permission to blame everything on me. I should think you’d make a point of that to Garcia. Again, thanks.” He backed out the door in case Ernesto possessed any weapons and all the way to the elevators. His bio-identification still held and he smashed a finger against the express button that shot him to the casino floor. He broke into a run out the front doors and leaped into the patrol car as the on-duty security force exploded out the front doors of the casino. The unit’s tires slammed down onto the pavement under Gavin’s foot and fishtailed as it flew off the premises and down the highway. He got a last glimpse of them taking aim and popping off a few rounds before they scattered like ants without a pheromone trail. ***** Alejandro Jesus Garcia Slammed down the phone in his penthouse bedroom “I am not happy,” he announced to the group of guards who stood just inside the penthouse suite’s front doors. Garcia untied the silk belt at the waist of his robe and tugged on a shirt. “Bring Calderon to my office. I’ll deal with him there. Sergeant, stay with me. We will discuss how to handle this…breach of security on the way down.” Garcia buttoned the collar of a newly pressed shirt and then buttoned the cuffs. He picked up his gun in its holster and slung it over his shoulder, finally pulling a jacket over it all. The clock on the wall read 10:30 p.m. but no one looked at it. The time was of no concern to anyone in these matters — matters that they must now take into their own hands and resolve. Garcia arrived at his office at exactly 10:39 p.m. and looked into the pale face of Ernesto Raul Calderon without pity. They SuspenseMagazine.com 3 had extracted the details of Gavin’s visit and his possession of the footage of the Amazon’s casino floor and rooms from Calderon and now Garcia made his decision. “Take him out,” he told the mini-troop of soldiers. “Have him write a note of suicide and then shoot him. Make it look like he pulled the trigger himself. Get him away from my sight.” Calderon barely squeaked out a faint protest as they lifted him off the floor and carried him by the armpits out of the office.

The 17 tracks on the album aren’t so much covers as they are tributes to one man's beautiful music; music that inspired a generation of underground musicians to pick up an instrument to create something that they wanted to hear rather than settle for what was being played to them on the radio. Tim Smith's cryptic and experimental songwriting style makes it impossible not to hear how much influence Cardiacs have had on the current wave of British alternative artists. Each track has very much been a labour of love for the artists involved, impeccably recreating the signature sound that made Cardiacs stand head and shoulders above their contemporaries.

  • Stoneage Dinosaurs / Fear Split Single Press Release
    SPLIT SINGLE RELEASE // LEADER OF THE STARRY SKIES: A TRIBUTE TO TIM SMITH STEVEN WILSON: Stoneage Dinosaurs // OCEANSIZE: Fear "...this is extraordinary and timeless music..." – Classic Rock Prog Magazine Leader Of The Starry Skies is a tribute to Tim Smith, lead singer of Cardiacs, who has been tragically stuck in hospital for two years after suffering a heart attack. The album is due to be re-released on vinyl, as well as a new split single featuring Stoneage Dinosaurs by Steven Wilson and Fear by Oceansize. These two tracks are taken from Leader Of The Starry Skies, and both the single and album are due for a vinyl release on the 16th April to coincide with Indie Record Store Day. "It would appear that more and more music lovers are embracing the notion of Independent Record Store day, and in this climate where the internet has taken over, it's cool that people still care about the stores… So with that in mind we thought it'd be prudent to draw attention to this amazing record." - Mike Vennart (Oceansize) These two tracks aren't so much covers as they are tributes to one man's beautiful music; music that inspired a generation of underground musicians to pick up an instrument to create something that they wanted to hear, rather than settle for what was being played to them on the radio.

  • Punk Rock Calvinists Who Hate the Modern Worship Movement": Ritual, Power, and White Masculinity in Mars Hill Church's Worship Music
    "Punk Rock Calvinists Who Hate the Modern Worship Movement": Ritual, Power, and White Masculinity in Mars Hill Church's Worship Music Maren Haynes A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Christina Sunardi, Chair Shannon Dudley James K. Wellman Jr. José Antonio Lucero, GSR Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music ©Copyright 2017 Maren Haynes ii University of Washington Abstract "Punk Rock Calvinists Who Hate the Modern Worship Movement": Ritual, Power, and White Masculinity in Mars Hill Church's Worship Music Maren Haynes Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Dr. Christina Sunardi Music This dissertation presents a critical case study of Mars Hill Church from its founding in 1998 through its closure in 2014 through the lens of the church's music ministry. Led by charismatic and controversial pastor Mark Driscoll, Mars Hill Church began as a small Bible study and grew into a fifteen-site megachurch across five states, largely drawing young adults between ages 18 and 35. Facing a cascade of scandals and accusations in 2014, Driscoll resigned as lead pastor and the church soon closed and dispersed. Tracing this bounded history through interviews with former members and musicians, archival print and web-based materials, published texts and books, and various participant-observation experiences at Mars Hill campuses before and during the collapse, I explore the multifaceted role of musicians as agents in perpetuating the iii church's youth culture orientation, precipitating church growth, centering and inculcating certain theologies, and patterning embodied worship experiences. I begin with an exploration of the history of Christian missions, detailing how 20th century European and American missionaries began to decouple Western cultural norms and practices from Christian orthodoxy, focusing instead on infusing Christian messages into indigenous cultural practices.
